11th Annual Savannah Cranksgiving Ride

November 18, 2023 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Our 11th annual Savannah Cranksgiving Ride is Saturday, Nov. 18 starting at 1 p.m. Cranksgiving is half bike ride, half food drive and a 100 percent fun way to spend a Saturday afternoon helping others.Bike Walk Savannah (and you!) will be helping feed hungry people at Emmaus House. Founded in 1982 by a group of downtown churches, Emmaus House provides food and day services to the homeless and needy of Savannah. Breakfast is served at 8:30 a.m. Monday through Friday, fifty weeks each year.
Registration for the ride starts at 1 p.m. on Saturday, Nov. 18 at BWS HQ (Corner of Henry and Lincoln streets). At registration, participants will receive a shopping list of items needed by Emmaus House, as well as a scavenger hunt. The challenge begins at 1:30 p.m. when riders roll out to shop by bike. Participants should pick up items from the shopping list without going over $15-20 price limit. This is not a race! Riders may compete by themselves or on teams (up to 6 members).
Prize packages will be awarded in the following categories:
Most Items Carried by a Single Person
Most Stores Visited (receipts needed from each store)
Best Team Effort
Most Innovative Cargo Rig
Participants who complete the Scavenger Hunt will be entered to win a BWS prize pack.
All participants must return to 1301 A Lincoln St. by 4 p.m. to tally up their purchases.
What should you bring? First of all, you’ll need your bike and $15-20. We also suggest a helmet. If you’re planning on carrying groceries, you should bring a backpack or other cargo solution for your bike.
Advanced registration is recommended. If you are unable to participate in person, please email info@bikewalksavannah.org to receive the supply list or visit Eventbrite to make a financial contribution.
